Chapter 13

Lucky woke up, feeling something on him he didn't know what. Then he looked by his side and saw Elizabeth, sleeping, her head on his chest. She was so beautiful. He stroke a flock of hair out of her forehead and kissed it. He saw her frown and smile in her sleep. He still couldn't believe they made love that night. It was so beautiful, so right. His mother once told him he would never felt connected to another human being like he was to her and she was right about not being connected like that, but he was connected deeper to another human being. Elizabeth. She was his heart, his life.

"-Good morning, he heard

-Hey beautiful, good morning to you too! He answered before kissing her softly

-What time is it?

-A little before six. Why?

-I have to get in my room before Gram gets home.

-That is true. But I don't want you to go, he said, tightening his embrace.

-I don't want to go either, but I have to. If you want, so we could be together, we can get up and pretend we have something planned today?

-I have a problem though. I have nothing to wear! My clothes are dirty!

-Well, I thought about that. After you made love to me and you feel asleep, I went downstairs in the washroom and washed them. I put them in the dryer and folded them.

-Well aren't you thoughtful? Thanks baby doll! Lucky said, kissing her passionately"

She rolled on him and kissed his neck, caressing him, clearly indicating she wanted a replay of their night together. But Lucky didn't want that. He broke her moves and looked at her.

"-Slow down missy, we have our whole life ahead of us! You don't want to wear me out do you?

-I want you Lucky, is that a crime?

-No, not at all, but Elizabeth, that doesn't mean we have to do it all the time. I mean, I want to make sure you are OK first. Sure you seem OK now, but what about tomorrow, or the day after that? When what we did really kicks into your head?

-I'm fine Lucky, stop worrying about me!"

Lucky kissed her, knowing she was right. He was too much of a worrywart, but he couldn't help it. He was afraid she would regret it when she finally got her memory back. If he could take back what happened last night he would, for her sake.

They were deep into the kiss where they heard the doorknob turn a little. Elizabeth quickly got under the covers. When she got back with Lucky's clothes, she completely forgot to lock the door again.

.-Lucky can I come in? I heard you talking, I know you are up! He heard, with Sarah's voice.

-Just a minute Sarah, I'm not dressed! He answered"

He put his clothes on, and saw Elizabeth peeked at him when he got out of the bed naked as the day he was born. He told her to go back under the bed. He would get Sarah downstairs so Elizabeth could go to her room.

"-Hey Sarah, how are you? He asked, closing the door behind him

-I thought I could talk to you, in your room, I have something to tell you and I don't want to wake my sister up.

-Well, let's go downstairs, the room is a mess, I want to clean it before your grandmother gets home.

-Ok, I'll make you breakfast if you want.

-French toasts would be cool!

-You got it!"

Elizabeth heard them going downstairs and she rushed in her room. She had to hurry to get in the kitchen, she wanted to know what Sarah had to talk to Lucky about. Elizabeth threw a pajama in a drawer, and closed it on it a couple of times, so it would look like she slept in it, and got down, yawning. Lucky didn't see her, neither did Sarah, and she could hear everything her sister had to say.

"-I know about you and my sister Lucky, but I mean, she doesn't love you right? She told you she wanted to break up, so what harm would it do to her if you and me went out a couple of times, for old times' sake?

-Sarah, as much as I would love to go back in time, we can't. My heart belongs to your sister. Even though she is having problems remembering some of the stuff that happened to her, I still belong to her, with her. Always have and always will. You see, Elizabeth and me, we complete each other. We realized a long time ago that we were the other half of each other. Her mind may still now remember it, but her soul does.

-But you just said you wished you could go back in time! Sarah argued

-I do wish I could go back. To change Valentine's day for Elizabeth.

-I really don't understand why you beat yourself up like this for my bratty sister!

-It's called LOVE Sarah, maybe one day you'll understand. Lucky said, getting up, mad. Thanks for the breakfast, but I lost my appetite!"

When he stormed out of the kitchen he came face to face with a torn Elizabeth. Tears were streaking down her face as she looked at Lucky. He took her in his arms, and they slowly got to her room. She sat on her bed and took Boris in her arms.

"-Wanna talk about it? Lucky asked

-What's there to talk about? My sister hits on my boyfriend, while I'm

"asleep" but somehow, as always, I end up being the brat!

-Oh Elizabeth"

Lucky didn't know what to say so he took her in his arms and remained silent. He stayed with her a little, and then told her he had an errand to run, that he would be back shortly. Liz looked at him go, crushed. He was running away from her, from her problems. She stayed in her room, just staring at the wall for a while, when she heard a guitar playing just outside her window. She sat on the roof and looked at Lucky, down on the ground, smiling at her. She smiled back and listened to what he was about to do.

"If I woke up tomorrow

More than anyone deserves"

Lucky put his guitar down, and climbed on the roof, to gently kiss his Elizabeth.

‘-Who needs them? We've got each other right? He simply said. I love you

-I love you too, you are so good to me

-Well I have no choice, how would God react if I'd treat his angel otherwise?"

Elizabeth smiled at him and put her hand on his face. He was so handsome, so gentle, so everything. How did she ever survived without him? As if he read her thoughts he said;

"-I don't know how you lived without me, but you will never have to again angel, I'm here for the long run.

-Well, that's something to look forward to everyday!"

Lucky kissed her, and suddenly she didn't feel the roof under her, she was flying. With her angel.
